In conjunction with InvestingNote’s annual trading competition – the UBS Leverage Trading Tournament 2022 – where participants are given S$100,000 of virtual cash to trade the UBS DLCs (Daily Leverage Certificates), and the winner will walk away with S$4,000 in cold, hard cash (if you are keen to join the competition, you can do so here – by the way, the competition is open for all to join), I was invited by the COO of the investing community, Mr Ethan Ho, to share my views and outlook of the Chinese market in a YouTube Live session held earlier today (02 November 2022.)

In case you’ve missed it, not to worry, you can check out the replay below. During the interview, I have shared about what’s causing the Hang Seng Index (also known as HSI in short) and the Hang Seng Tech Index (also known as HSTECH in short) to crash by 50+% and 70+% respectively, catalysts and risks which will result in the Hong Kong market to rebound back up or sink further down, along with my technical analysis of how the HSI, HSTECH, and 3 of the most popular Chinese counters – Alibaba (SEHK:9988), Meituan Dianping (SEHK:3690), and Tencent (SEHK:700) could possibly move in the near-term.

REITs vs Banks: Which Investment Delivers More for Income Seekers?

If you thought 2025 was a wild ride for the stock market, wait until you see 2026! With not only the uncertainty of interest rate changes and geopolitical tensions but also a military operation by Israel and the United States against Iran, it's set to be even more turbulent.

So, with all this in mind, which is the better choice for income investors: REITs or banks?

I'm honoured to be re-invited by Dinah Poehlmann from Your Finance Mind for a fireside chat on Zoom this year, where I'll be sharing my insights on this topic.

Join me on Thursday, 19 March 2026, from 8pm to 9pm, as I offer my thoughts and answer any questions you may have.

Are You Worried about Not Having Enough Money for Retirement?

You're not alone. According to the OCBC Financial Wellness Index, only 62% of people in their 20s and 56% of people in their 30s are confident that they will have enough money to retire.

But there is still time to take action. One way to ensure that you have a comfortable retirement is to invest in real estate investment trusts (REITs).

In 'Building Your REIT-irement Portfolio' which I've authored, you will learn everything you need to know to build a successful REIT investment portfolio, including a list of 9 things to look at to determine whether a REIT is worthy of your investment, 1 simple method to help you maximise your returns from your REIT investment, 4 signs of 'red flags' to look out for and what you can do as a shareholder, and more!
